What we do

Four moves, then a steady cadence

EHF setup in your accounting

We turn on EHF in your accounting system, register you in ELMA, and verify a successful first send and receive.

Suppliers and customers

We map who you invoice and who invoices you, get their organisation numbers and confirm everyone is reachable through EHF.

Team training

A short, practical session for whoever sends and receives invoices: how it works, what changes, what to watch for in the first weeks.

Monthly check

Once running, we check delivery, bounce reports and any failed invoices once a month, and clean up what needs cleaning up.

Partnership

With Smart Økonomi AS

We deliver EHF together with Smart Økonomi AS, our accounting partner. They know the systems most Norwegian businesses run, and they have already put thousands of invoices through the EHF network.

EHF questions

Honest answers

What is EHF exactly?
EHF is the Norwegian electronic invoice format, built on the European Peppol BIS standard. Instead of a PDF in an email, the invoice is a structured digital document that the receiver's system reads and posts automatically.
Do I have to comply if I am a small business?
Yes. The mandate covers all businesses registered in Norway that trade B2B, regardless of size. Sole proprietors are included.
Will my accounting system support EHF?
Almost certainly. The most common Norwegian accounting systems already support EHF natively or through an integration. We check yours during setup and turn on what is needed.
What happens if we are not ready by 1 January 2027?
You risk delayed payment, manual reminders from larger customers and, eventually, fines. The setup is straightforward when started in time, so there is no good reason to wait.
Does this replace my accountant?
No. It strengthens the accounting flow. Your accountant keeps doing what they do, with cleaner data going in. Smart Økonomi AS can take that role if you do not have one.
